I know - One day we will actually be able to go and see it instead of rushing round trying to make all of the various elements run smoothly Loads more runners and riders still to see I’m just scratching the surface here with people who paid up promptly and made my life super easy in terms of the hill climb bookings I half tempted to do a drop outs thread for the cars that applied - got accepted and then were unable to proceed due to mechanical issues or other factors but that might be a bit cruel

Waiting to see what else is going up the hill is just adding to the anticipation of the Gathering…. So take your time (but maybe finish by Wednesday so you can have a big sleep on Thursday before the late night Friday and Saturday that I’m sure you’ll have! )

BMW E36, Golfs and MX-5's are my nightmare - curse word loads of applications from those cars and they are all good cars but Noah only allowed two by two on the ark so I have to pick (trust me it's not easy) Daniel Baker 1999 Mazda Mx5 1.6 turbo track car. Sometimes I even let the odd one in that's a bit too new Eden Riley MAZDA MX5 But balance is provided George Haines ( Splitty456) 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle I'm currently doing some engine upgrades so it can actually do some Smokey (one wheeled) burnouts this time.

graham crompton 1970 Hillman Imp super It looks and sounds cool plus I think it's pretty quick so let's find out 👠Grant Gwyn 1990 Volkswagen Jetta GTI "Car is on air suspension so don't worry about it being low on the hill. 1.8 16v GTI engine all stock apart from exhaust" Jake Hamilton 1992 Honda Prelude "The spec of the car itself isn't all that special, BBS wheels, coilovers, full exhaust etc. However I have never seen a fourth gen go up the hill in all the years I have attended the show.bstardchild comment - I don't think I can remember seeing one either but you never know This one in particular (my seventh) is quite special to me. I had a bump in it last year and spent months bringing it back from the dead. Since then I have tried to have as much fun as possible with it, it's just completed a 2000 mile trip to do the NC500 which it did faultlessly. I'd like to take my Grandad up the hill as a passenger in a Prelude. He had one brand new in 1995, and used to race at Shelsley Walsh in the 1960's. He enjoyed the show in 2019, so I think he'd get a kick out of going up the hill. James Crawford 1993 Nissan 200sx s13 "3 year build s13 drift car project Ca18det engine T28R turbo ,circa 270bhp BN Sport style aero" James Shepherd 1990 VW Golf GTI Owned for 6.5 years, just completed 1.8T 20v conversion. Now mapped to 230bhp John Talliss 1981 Ford Escort MK2 Lee Crawford 1990 Volkswagen Mk2 golf Mk2 golf vr6 turbo engine running 400bhp roll cage bucket seats. Leon Crump 1998 Mitsubishi Evolution "Mitsubishi evolution V GSR, The Evolution V was the most successful Evo in rallying and now classed as a retro/classic? I have only attending retro rides gathering once in 2019 and has been my favourite show I've ever attended, looking forward to this year, and also is driving the hill climb would be a bonus" Mark smith 1977 Ford Escort (Rothmans livery) Escort mk2 Rothmans rep , Morgan Henshaw 1978 Dodge B200 Next one needs some explaination - it's running in both Morning and Afternoon Sessions - we don't allow that unless it's a different driver and this is Nick Lake ( nicos7358 ) 1981 Datsun Sunny CA18DET with LSD ETC father and son team. Shed built paul french 2015 Pembleton Super Sport "Cyclecar three wheels two front one rear Moto Guzzi 750 cc. Manufactured in Worcestershire" Peers Wood (Scimitarse6b) 1998 Mazda Mx5 1.8 turbo "Hi there, modified turbo mx5, bonnet vents off a military helicopter, half turbo from a Mitsubishi evo2, other half from a Subaru and a whole lot of revs! All self built and tuned. I know an mx5 isn't the most interesting car at RR, and maybe my other car will be finished for next year, but I'm sure some will appreciate it up the hill."

Possibly the best Hunter body restoration in the UK. Andrew Stephens ( Shortcut) 1991 Peugeot 205 gti 1.9 205 Gti historic rally car spec, in period(ash) livery. Andy Edwards 1970 Ford Escort mk1 Brown and Geeson replica touring car 1740 xflow twin 45's Ant Northover ( motoant999) 1986 Nissan Silvia S12 "It's an actual barn find! Once we'd finished cleaning the hay out of it, we swapped the engine for the later S14 SR20DET and upgraded to an LSD. Now we spend our time doing skids and chasing rust." Ashley Goode 1990 Volkswagen Golf "Track Car 2.0 tuned Abf engine Compomotive wheels Cage Bucket seats Fully polybushed Polly windows LSD" Ben Bonfield 1980 Austin Mini Full competition HillClimb car fitted with a 16v bmw cylinder head on the a series block and gearbox, full competition slick racing tyres. Returning to use this year after 2 years out. Chris Allen 1967 Shelby Mustang Trans Am "302 CID engine Side pipes American Racing wheeld Willwood disc brakes" Craig McArthur ( craigax) 1997 Citroen AX "Originally base spec 1.0i, converted to use C2 VTS engine and running gear.

David Mercer 1992 Nissan Micra Super S Stock looking super S on throttle bodies, track prepped suspension/brakes etc George Morey ( Morey) 1997 Rover Metro GTi rep "I've previously taken part at the RR weekender AND also at the RR gathering on track and also booked club stands in the past with ""MetroPower"". I've always thought RR is a fantastic event and the single best classic car show in the country! Now to the car: I've had this car since before even passing my test, although originally I was horrified with the idea of having to use it as my first car. Fast forward a few years and it's been modified to the nines whilst maintaining its retro looks. It's fitted with a 1.8vvc MG ZR engine with a 177bhp Rolling road printout to show it's no slouch! (Thanks to its map, port matching, stainless exhaust, forced induction, and many many performance/handling mods) It's certainly an excellent and enjoyable go-cart with a great sentimental value to me. That doesn't mean that I cannot enjoy a weekend blast or some serious track action. (It's fitted with a half-cage, race harnesses and some sticky tyres) It's also worth noting it's achieved a 13.7 at Santapod! I'd really appreciate a consideration to add to your line-up of the day." James Matthews 1987 Volvo 240 Semi forged 2.3 redblock n/a Jim Henshaw ( tilmor) 1972 Morris minor Van "1275cc Banded steels 5 speed Disc brakes Lowered" John Campbell 1976 Mini Clubman 1275gt "Fully track prepared car 1430 fully tune engine"

I've had the M54B30 fitted - Uprated brakes - many many poly bushes secondary cat and resonator delete and lots of other bits and pieces.
